1Opinion of the CourtNakamoto, J.

Mother appeals from a judgment terminating her parental rights to her twins, a son and a daughter, on the ground of unfitness under ORS 419B.504. Mother acknowledges her problems in the past with alcohol, but challenges the trial court’s rulings that, at the time of trial, (1) she was unfit based on conduct or conditions that were seriously detrimental to the twins and (2) integration of the twins into her home was improbable within a reasonable time because her conduct or conditions were unlikely to change. Based on our de novo review of the record, we affirm the trial court’s judgment.
